Gary Cole from Chicago was the only person who won big at the Oscars that didn't take home the golden statue. #GaryfromChicago is trending big on social media today.
After host, Jimmy Kimmel gave Gary and host of tourists the thrill of a lifestyle by surprising them with a trip to the Oscars. Gary took full advantage of the moment as he held his fiancee's Vicky, purse taking photos of celebrities, kissing the hand of Nicole Kidman and even borrowing Mahershala Ali's Oscar to have him take a selfie. Gary and Vicki were even "married" by Denzel Washington.
The day after his Oscar debut is getting better with people looking for him to bestow freebies. The Chicago Bulls have reached out to give him free tickets to a game. Walmart wants to give Gary and Vicki wedding gifts.
